    How to Watch Zwift Races Live on Your Computer

    UPDATE: this is an older post which does not include watching riders who are participating in events. To watch those riders you must join their event, then click their name in the riders list to see their viewpoint.


    Want to spectate on Zwift and cheer on your friends? You’re not alone. According to Zwift CEO Eric Min, many races have hundreds of spectators signing on just to watch the action! (As a racer you don’t notice this since spectators don’t show up in the game–but they are watching.)

    Here’s a video from Zwift corporate explaining how to watch races:

    Want Live Commentary?

    If you like live race commentary, you should check out Nathan Guerra’s Twitch.tv channel. He delivers live race commentary for some of Zwift’s regular races. Nathan is a pro rider himself, head of Team Vision, and raced in this GCN Richmond video (he finished just behind Simon–but he had also raced the day before!)
